rocks from Syria along with published data of Syrian and Arabian lavas constrain the …

Google Earth offers the opportunity to study “desert kites”, large, presumably Neolithic,
gazelle-hunting structures, shaped like children's kites in their final building stages. Kites …

A geochemical and petrological study of Miocene to recent alkali basalts, basanites,
hawaiites, mugearites, trachytes, and phonolites erupted within the Harrat Ash Shamah …

Major global events during the Oligocene epoch included a climatic change from warm
“greenhouse” to a cooler “icehouse” that was accompanied by the onset of Antarctic …

Due to the mass demand for excellent construction materials for infrared and super
